accueil Criticat 16 paraîtra en octobre 2015. Parce que l’architecture se trouve au confluent de domaines de tous ordres, avec chacun leurs enjeux, leurs contraintes et leurs acteurs ; parce qu’elle est liée aux questions techniques et sociales autant qu’esthétiques et qu’elle dépend étroitement du politique et de l’économie, elle constitue un observatoire idéal des évolutions de la société tout entière. Plutôt que de commenter ou d’expliquer l’architecture à partir de sa propre culture, criticat entend donc examiner la société et sa culture depuis le point de vue de l’architecture. En publiant chaque semestre des critiques engagées en ce sens, nous espérons contribuer par l’architecture au nécessaire débat sur le monde tel qu’il se construit. Criticat a été fondée en 2008 comme un espace de réflexion indépendant des institutions et des groupes d’intérêt, ouvert à tous les acteurs du monde intellectuel et artistique. Association Criticat110, boulevard Arago 75014 Paris critic@criticat.fr

'Start Up Street' - what will you start up? - News - Urbanism - A+DS The High Street is a key element of our settlements. Its role as the central space of villages, towns and cities has been challenged by changes in the pattern of retail, of leisure, and living. In many High Streets in many settlements there are vacant and underutilised assets. In some cases the High Street is under pressure. It is an issue of concern for many, from businesses, to citizens, to investors. Meeting the challenge of how to re-think the High Street as a central place requires creative thinking about how we make the best of what we already have. The project is open to anyone with an interest in High Streets, how they work, and how they can be enhanced. Details of the events to test the Start Up Street Prototype are available, where to register and how to participate are available at this link.

For the future good of our high streets we need a better understanding of the social and economic life of local worlds in the context of global change Profound changes are occurring on high streets throughout the country. In order for policies aimed at their planning and stewardship to succeed, a greater understanding of how high streets adapt to changing economic conditions and serve their neighbourhoods is needed. Suzanne Hall argues for a multidisciplinary approach in understanding the social and economic particularities of high streets. Since late 2008, economic crises and legislated cuts have reverberated across Britain, impressing on a daily basis that we live and work in an austere and volatile present. To what extent are small urban entrepreneurs and micro socio-economic networks able to adapt to global economic change? In the context of the high street, I argue for a greater understanding of the social and economic particularities of local worlds if policies aimed at their planning and stewardship are to succeed. However, larger changes in the broader Walworth neighbourhood are imminent. About the author

EPE - Entreprises pour l'Environnement WBCSD-SNV Alliance: Creating inclusive business opportunities by linking local communities with big business Le centre hospitalier, lieu d'expérimentation des déplacements Parce qu'il cumule les spécificités et les difficultés, le centre hospitalier se révèle comme un lieu très intéressant en matière d'études et d'actions concernant la mobilité des biens et des personnes : publics variés, avec des motivations de déplacement très différentes,horaires à la fois très variables et peu souples (les employés n'ont pas tous de plages d'horaires), avec des périodes de fortes fréquentations souvent découplées des transports en commun classiques,flux de marchandises très spécifiques, Dans un contexte où le recrutement du personnel soignant se révèle de plus en plus difficile, où la multi-activité des professionnels de santé (alternant des actes médicaux en secteur libéral et des vacations dans le secteur public, par exemple) et la pratique des temps partiels (liée certainement à la féminisation de la profession) se développent, l’accessibilité à l’hôpital devient aussi un enjeu prédominant pour faire face aux évolutions de l’emploi du personnel hospitalier.

Multi-Agent Transport Simulation | MATSim Ecosystème La démarche de Danone (...) : un mélange de vision et de pragmatisme. A partir de quelques convictions, d’un peu d’intuition et de beaucoup d’expérimentation, nous essayons de faire vivre un modèle d’entreprise où performance économique et sociétale se nourrissent mutuellement.FRANCK RIBOUD, Président du Conseil d'Administration Danone Contrairement au mécénat (qui se situe en marge de l’activité économique de l’entreprise), les Fonds Danone financent des projets qui sont au coeur de son activité. Ce n’est pas du caritatif, c’est du business. Intelligent, constructif, bienveillant. Et c’est sans doute pour cela que ses vertus humaines et sociales, ancrées au coeur du modèle, seront sans doute plus durables. CONCRèTEMENT : TOUT LE MONDE A UNE VOIX Il s’agit, par la co-création et l’innovation, de développer l’activité économique de façon responsable et équitable, en veillant à ce qu’un maximum de protagonistes tire un bénéfice réel. Les populations sont parties prenantes
